Current Exhibition
Reynier Ferrer | Embracing the Unknown
Art of the World Gallery is pleased to present Embracing the Unknown, a solo exhibition by Cuban artist Reynier Ferrer, on view from April 24 through July 26, 2025. The show features 23 compelling paintings in various formats, highlighting Ferrer’s distinctive approach to abstraction, emotional expression, and gestural experimentation.
Ferrer’s work is a visceral reflection of his emotional world — a raw, expressive outpouring shaped by spontaneity and intuition. His painting emerges from an internal, improvisational process where gesture and chance intertwine, giving form to striking visual experiences.
Trained at the prestigious San Alejandro Academy in Havana — Cuba’s oldest fine arts school — Ferrer later refined his practice under the mentorship of Spanish painter José Luis Fajardo at El Hombre y sus Entornos. Rooted in automatism and pictorial experimentation, Ferrer’s work forgoes preliminary sketches; instead, his compositions are born from trance-like states where abstraction and figuration coexist in a charged and often transgressive tension.
Each new series marks a departure — a deliberate refusal to repeat — reinforcing the constant evolution of his pictorial language. Despite this reinvention, Ferrer’s visual signature remains unmistakable.
His work has been exhibited at major institutions including New York’s Lincoln Center; the Warwick Center for the Arts in Rhode Island; and Brown University’s Watson Institute for International and Public Affairs. His paintings are included in the permanent collection of the National Museum of Fine Arts in Havana — home to the world’s most important repository of Cuban art.
In 2020, Ferrer was commissioned to create Nautilus, a monumental 23-foot wide canvas for the Port of Miami’s Norwegian Cruise Line Terminal B, as part of Miami-Dade County’s Art in Public Places program. His work is also held in private collections across more than 30 countries worldwide.
